PFC - Lost in space

Hi,

I have previous experience working with older versions of PowerBuilder without PFC. (Mostly providing enhancements to existing systems). I have been tasked with fixing a VERY buggy unstable pb6.5 application which uses PFC. I am having a heck of a time figuring out PFC... Does anyone know of some good sites that I could browse to help get myself up to speed, or can give me some insight regarding my problem below. I do not understand how to effectively use the Object browser...or, just to trace through the code to see what happens, and in what sequence.

I have a window which is inherited from a base class window, and contains some user objects. When the user selects add (command button on user object embedded on page), the constructor event for the main datawindow does a insertrow(0) to fake out the datawindowchild so the it will not prompt for the datawindowchild arguments... but it still prompts for them...? I have a great deal of trouble following through the code (all the inherited stuff) to figure out what the heck it's doing and in what order after the add button is clicked.

Thanks for the assistance.

(No, there is not money in the budget for PFC training.)
